The aperture value and/or shutter speed flashes when you press the
shutter button halfway down.
• Since the subject is too bright or too dark, it is beyond the available range of
the camera. Adjust the setting again.
The image is whitish (Flare).
Blurring of light appears on the image (Ghosting).
• The picture was taken under a strong light source, and excessive light has
entered the lens. Attach a lens hood.
The corners of the picture are too dark.
• If any filter or hood is used, take it off and try shooting again. Depending on
the thickness of the filter and improper attachment of the hood, the filter or
the hood may partially appear in the image. The optical properties of some
lenses may cause the periphery of the image to appear too dark (insufficient
light). You may compensate for this phenomenon with [Lens Comp.:
Shading] (page 181).
The eyes of the subject come out red.
• Activate the red eye reduction function (page 40).
• Get close to the subject, and shoot the subject within the flash range using
the flash. Check the flash range in “Specifications.”
Dots appear and remain on the LCD screen.
• This is not a malfunction. These dots are not recorded (page 12).
The image is blurred.
• The picture was taken in a dark location without the flash, resulting in
camera shake. The use of a tripod or the flash is recommended (page 115).
The EV scale b B is flashing on the LCD screen or in the viewfinder.
• The subject is too bright or too dark for the metering range of the camera.
The sound is not recorded properly.
• If you set the recording level to the minimum, the sound is not recorded.
• If you set the recording level to the maximum, the sound tends to include
cracking noises.
